Filter by:Aim of the study is to evaluate chronic total coronary occlusion treatment results 6 years after bioresorbable scaffold implantation by quantitative coronary analysis, intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography.
This study was performed as a randomized controlled a study with a pre test-post test design, aimed to determine affect of reflexology masagge to the pain, anxiety and comfort level on the patients that are percutaneous coronary intervention.
The INROAD is an investigator-driven, prospective, study in which patients undergoing coronary sinus reducer implantation (Reducer) for chronic refractory angina undergo evaluation of the index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) at the time of implantation, and at 4 months follow-up
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the use of physiology parameters as guidance post-percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is associated with less risks of target vessel failure (TVF) and angina-related events than standard angiographic guidance.
Drug eluting stents (DES) are widely used for treatment of coronary artery lesions. The Xience Sierra stent has a refined design of the metal stent backbone and is used in patients with various clinical syndromes and in different lesions. Clinical outcome of patients with previously unknown (silent) diabetes and prediabetes is of increasing interest since the latter group has recently shown to be associated with a significant risk of adverse cardiovascular events after treatment with contemporary DES. Outcome data in a population of high-risk all-comer patients, including many patients with diabetes mellitus and prediabetes, would be of great interest, but such data are not available yet. In addition, there is a lack of data in a general all-comer population. Therefore, the COASTLINE study will primarily assess the safety and efficacy of the Xience Sierra stent in a general all-comer population as well as a high-risk all-comer population.
The objective of this post-approval study is to confirm that the clinical performance of the Orsiro stent in a real-world setting is similar to the clinical performance observed for Orsiro in the BIOFLOW-V Investigational Device Exemption pivotal trial, as a condition of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval (P170030).
Angina in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is a clinical conundrum and patient management is heterogeneous. Hypothesis: Abnormal coronary function is common and clinically relevant in this population. Design: An observational cohort study and nested randomised controlled diagnostic strategy trial. Methods: 250 patients with known or suspected angina informed by validated questionnaires but without obstructive CAD (<70% stenosis) in an artery >=2.5 mm or structural heart disease, as revealed by CT coronary angiography (CTCA), will be invited to undergo coronary function testing (FFR, CFR, IMR; intra-coronary ACh) during invasive angiography. Patients will be randomised following angiography but before testing coronary function to disclosure of the coronary function test results or not. Treatment decisions by the attending cardiologist will be recorded before and after disclosure of results. Outcomes: Primary: The between-group difference in the reclassification rate of the initial diagnosis using logistic regression, adjusted for baseline factors associated with the likelihood of reclassification of the initial diagnosis. Secondary: Prevalence of microvascular or vasospastic angina; health status reflected by the EuroQol group 5-Dimensions (EQ-5D), Seattle Angina Questionnaire, Illness perception, treatment satisfaction questionnaires and functional status questionnaires; angina medication and adherence. Value: This research will provide new insights into the conundrum of angina in patients without obstructive CAD or structural heart disease.
Serum uric acid level is a commonly measured biomarker. The association between serum uric acid level and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases has been observed in some studies, while others showed controversial results. Estimation of this association may help to predict cardiovascular outcomes and may guide new treatment strategies. The hypothesis is that increased serum uric acid level is associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases.
Approximately 5 to 8% of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions requires chronic anticoagulant therapy due to atrial fibrillation or other clinical entities. There are many possible different combinations of the antithrombotic therapy after stent implantation in these patients. Aim of this observational study is to evaluate the real world antithrombotic treatment in patients requiring anticoagulant therapy undergoing stent implantation and to compare the clinical outcome of patients treated with new oral anticoagulant drugs compared to warfarin. The study is prospective, performed in different Italian hospitals and aimed to enroll 1080 patients with a 1 year follow up
The current study sought to evaluate the clinical relevance of iFR-guided strategy in real world clinical practice using unrestricted study population from stable angina to acute coronary syndrome including acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Previous abundant historical data of FFR-guided strategy will be also included as historical control to validate the iFR-guided strategy.
